4 world titles at stake in ‘Fight of Champions’

Boxing legend Manny Pacquiao is gunning for one of four world titles at stake against WBA champion Lucas Matthysse in the "Fight of Champions" roadshow that promises to electrify the Axiata Arena on July 15 from start to finish.

Playing the unlikely role as challenger in an inspired bid to win an unprecedented 11th world title, the only eightweight division boxing champion Pacquiao (59-7-2, 36 KOs), is training to dethrone the dangerous Matthysse of Argentina (39-4, 36 KOs).

The World Boxing Association has recently ordered for Jhack Tepora of the Philippines (21-0, 16 KOs) to fight Edivaldo "Indio" Ortega of Mexico (26-1-1, 12 KOs), for the vacant "regular" WBA featherweight title.

Tepora, the explosive 25year-old Cebu native, will get his hands full against the 28year-old Ortega of Tijuana, Mexico. Tepora is looking to deny Ortega the pleasure of beating another Filipino in his quest for the world title. Ortega has beaten Drian Francisco in his last fight.

Pacquiao did not scrimp on assembling the best boxers from around the world and offer it to Malaysian fight fans as China is looking to break an elusive boxing record. Lu Bin (1-0), the talented Jinan, China boxer with a sterling amateur career, has been given the title shot by the WBA to face light flyweight champion Carlos "CCC" Canizales of Venezuela.
